Chapter 129: Observations at the Survivor Base Outside Dawn
"Okay, close the team! Go back to camp!"
Captain Liu Zhongqing waved, and all the team members gathered back into the team and headed towards the camp.
This is the scavenger team from the survivor camp outside Dawn. It usually consists of five to six people and is responsible for the daily task of hunting zombies. There are at least 30 such teams in the camp.
Along the way, Du Shuai, Liu Zhongqing and others chatted happily.
"Captain, what were you doing before the end of the world?" Du Shuai asked.

Liu Zhongqing smiled helplessly and said: "Self-employed, I saved some money by working part-time in 2021, and opened a small supermarket in Laxian, and then I encountered this egg incident."
Speaking of this, Liu Zhongqing sighed and said: "It's a pity that my supermarket is too low-lying. When a flood came, it was all destroyed. That's more than 20,000 yuan of goods!"
"What happened next?" Du Shuai asked curiously.
Liu Zhongqing said: "Then I was captured by those bastards from Sunset Community, but fortunately the big guys at Shuguang Base rescued me, and I was able to come to the Shuguang Survivor Outer Camp. Speaking of which, for such people I’m satisfied with my life. I kill three or four zombies every day and have one meal to eat, which is pretty good.”
"Captain, don't you want to build your own base?" Du Shuai asked curiously.
Liu Zhongqing said angrily: "You kid, are you still out of breath?"
Du Shuai was so busy that he waved his hand and said with a smile: "I'm just curious, after all, you always have to have some dreams in your life!
"Shit! What a stupid dream! At this time, one day is like two and a half days, what kind of dreams can I have? Besides, I know very well how many pounds I have, but the cadres at the base just lift a few of them casually. We are just ordinary people who weigh a thousand pounds. It is good if others are willing to stutter. People, you must learn to be content. You must have been watching short videos every day and drank too much poisonous chicken soup!" Liu Zhongqing said at the end, again! Trained a few words.
Du Shuai chuckled and said nothing.
Soon, several people arrived at the gate of Shuguang's outer camp.
The outlying camp is separated by several iron fences used for construction, and there are survivors working with cement on the side to build a wall directly outside these fences for reinforcement.
"Stop, who is it?"
Just as Du Shuai followed Liu Zhongqing in, the guard guarding the door pointed a submachine gun at the two and shouted sternly.
"I am Liu Zhongqing from the scavenger team."
Liu Zhongqing hurriedly stepped forward, showed his identity card, and whispered: "The password is meat, eggs and milk."
"Well, let's go in."
The two guards' expressions softened and they pointed their guns inside.
"Thank you both." With that, Liu Zhongqing greeted the four teammates behind him and Du Shuai: "Let's go in."
As soon as he finished speaking, Du Shuai quickly followed.
After entering the camp, Du Shuai turned around and looked around, as if Grandma Liu had entered the Grand View Garden, feeling strange.
"Is this the Dawn Outer Camp? It's a bit interesting."
As we walked, we looked at the camp plan.
"Okay, brothers, the hunting mission has been completed. Let's go back and wait for the meal." Liu Zhongqing greeted and left first.
Du Shuai felt at ease and wandered around the camp outside Shuguang alone.
What catches the eye is a neat row of shantytowns, separated by oilcloth and wooden boards. They are relatively simple, but in front of each shantytown, women are chatting while washing clothes, and children are running around and playing with no expressions on their faces. Being in the panic of the apocalypse, but looking at it, there is a sense of fireworks in the countryside.
"It seems that this base should have sufficient supplies." Du Shuai analyzed secretly.
Combined with the arrival of military vehicles early in the morning and their team of scavengers hunting zombies, it can be deduced that this camp should obtain supplies from the military by providing zombie crystals to the military.
Nodding, Du Shuai continued walking forward.
On the roadside, people kept saying hello to him.
This concluded that ‘Du Shuai’ should be familiar with these people, and he responded to them one by one.
Soon, he arrived at the trading area.
In front of an abandoned house, several women were holding large pots and lighting firewood, and several women were tearing apart compressed biscuits piled up in military green packages.
This scene further confirmed his guess.
Apart from these, there are also a few women setting up stalls.
The so-called stall means that there is a piece of cloth or a broken paper shell on the ground, or there is nothing on it, and there are some common tools on it, such as fruit knives, steel sticks, and even expired instant noodles, etc. It must have been picked up by someone in the family who went out to join the scavenger team.
According to the rules of the base, they are free to trade.
After a brief glance, 'Du Shuai' was not interested in these.
Keep going.
He came to the health area again. Not far ahead is a public toilet, and next to the toilet is a wall with two patrolling guards and several survivors who built the wall.
Secretly remembering the map of the surrounding survivor camps in his mind, Du Shuai walked towards the shantytown. After asking a few people, he quickly obtained the information about the shantytown where he was.
But when he was about to go in, a voice sounded from the side.
"Xiao Du, did you come back very early today?"
When the voice came, Du Shuai quickly turned around and saw that it was a woman in her late thirties holding a child.
"Oh, we were lucky today. We encountered several zombies, so we came back early." Du Shuai calmed down and smiled after a brief panic.
"Did you see my Shen Fu when you went out?" the woman asked again.
Du Shuai shook his head: "No, they should have gone hunting farther away. We went to the aviation community and didn't dare to go far."
"Okay." The woman looked disappointed, then took out a bag of milk and fed it to the child in her arms.
Milk?
Glancing at the date on it, it was not an expired product.
Seeing this, 'Du Shuai' fell into deep thought again.
...
On the other side.
After leaving the base, Jiang Cheng went directly through the gate of Yanghe School, passed through the school, and went out the back door to the ship community and the levee.
In addition to going to Tiannan City for investigation this time, he also had another purpose, which was to test Meowpass's strength and ability.
So, after going out the back door, the man and the beast turned left and entered the ship community.
The Ship Community was established in the 1960s. Most of the people living here are shipyard employees and their families.
Unfortunately, in the 21st century, with the closure and demolition of the shipyard, many workers lost their jobs on the spot, but fortunately, they were able to receive a good pension.
Until the great flood came, this community completely became a thing of the past.
However, Jiang Cheng has never set foot in this area, because the population of this community is at least more than 10,000.
With so many people gathered, the first-level zombies must exist.
There is even the possibility of the second level!
After a man and a beast carefully entered the community, Jiang Cheng observed the surroundings and lowered his voice.
"Meowpas, listen to my instructions later."
"Meow——"
